Why don’t you speak for yourself and stop condemning a significant portion of the human population that doesn’t require regular sex to be healthy both mentally and physically?
Why are you mad about someone saying sex is healthy? This is so interesting to me.
I agree with PP that sex is not necessary to have a happy, healthy life. I have had periods of my life where I had lots of great sex and that was fine. I have also had times when I had no sex and I have been able to be happy and healthy during those years as well. In fact, when I was sexually active while I was sexually satisfied I did have to deal with yeast infections, herpes and some emotional drama from being in a relationship that was quite unhealthy. So there's that. Two sides to this issue for sure.
Wow. Sounds like your problem was recklessness not sex.
Nope. My "problem" was not recklessness or sex. I've had good relationships and ones that end up problematic. You might want to try not to be so judgmental.
So the herpes was from you being safe?

I do not make ill-advised decisions based on romantic considerations, and I will not tolerate being around people below my standards just to avoid being “lonely” or to have sex.
I find meaning, happiness, and fulfillment without a relationship or partner.
I also own a great vibrator and use it on the regular, ex husband couldn’t compete with it at all.
Normalizing living this way may help people. As if we need more issues to feel “less-than” about these days! Live your life!
This, for sure. Lack of a sex life has led to a dramatic drop in drama and depression from unmet expectations. I please me. That's enough.
High five!
Also, I believe my independence absolutely stops men from approaching me. I am very attractive and likely “intimidating”.
If they’re afraid of me they can keep walking. Weeds out losers.
You're lack of fear is what makes me afraid. Perhaps you should grow in some humility.

You really hold orgasms in high regard eh?
It's not that orgasms themselves are so great. It's the physical intimacy with someone you love. It's not the thing itself, it's the thing with who it's with.

Sex isn’t healthy if your partner isn’t monogamous . It becomes dangerous then.

My spouse has a very low drive. So what’s it done to me? I fantasize about when my kids go to college and I can leave and have a new life.
For YOU maybe. What you just said: If you're not having sex throughout your entire life, up until the terminal weeks right before you die, then you do not have a fundamental connection to a human.
Does anyone else reading this disagree? Because I'm quite certain I have a handful of "fundamental" "connections" to other humans -- my mother, my son -- without banging them.
You know what else is fundamental? Reading.

Also this. Time for interests that aren't centered in my pants. Much more intellectually stimulating!

To be cold and distant from spouse during day and expect sex at night is unreasonable. People (especially women) need to feel loved and cared for, not just used
I think this is true.
In my case however any touch at all is unwelcome.
And any discussion to try and address the issue is unwelcome.
So coparenting it is.
I used to be angry about it. But once we passed the 5 year mark I just stopped looking at her in any manner whatsoever other than a co-parent.
